Chapter 749

"1.2 million..."

Some students are already interested. "Teacher Soujiro, I want to learn, please teach me."

The students developed an unprecedented enthusiasm for painting.

…

The staff office after class.

Soujiro came to the office with the students' works in hand and made corrections.

68 points.

"It's very good. I passed the test all the time."

When Mr. Ito came back from physical education class, his seat was next to Mr. Soujiro.

But this statement made Master Sojiro sigh. "In the art world, a score of 68 is actually about the same as a score of 0."

"It means there is no talent at all."

"So it's just useless work." Teacher Ito said. "The mayor also expects too much from the children."

"But in fact, many people are not that material."

"They even went to Chiba to find me. In the end, I only found two or three guys with good physical fitness who could be trained. However, it is still too difficult to meet the requirements to stand out." Teacher Ito said with a sigh. .

"It's almost the same over there." Teacher Soujiro said.

Both he and Mr. Ito came from this town, but they each have their own strengths. Mr. Ito specializes in sports, while he is good at painting.

Both of them started their own careers after graduating from college. At this time, the mayor came to them personally to ask for help, hoping that they could help raise the child, even if it was only for one year.

The mayor's seriousness and consideration for the future are also respectable.

So, after thinking about it, they all came back.

Soujiro is a little better than Ito. He likes the scenery of Itomori Town very much, and the scenery paintings painted here can sell well. As a painter, he can draw materials from anywhere.

So Ito is also more prone to hair loss.

"So……"

Soujiro looked at the location next door. "Teacher Yukino is not coming today either."

"...Well, continue to ask for leave." Teacher Ito said.

He is not only the physical education teacher, but also the head teacher and the dean of students. He is also responsible for taking leave.

"By the way, I heard something about her dispute with a third-year student..."

Soujiro seemed to be trying to figure out his tone, "I think those things are impossible, and aren't you pursuing her? So if you stand up for her..."

"I'm still collecting evidence and testimony." Teacher Ito said.

"..."

Soujiro continued to look at the students' homework while talking, and finally stood up.

"What happened? All of a sudden."

"I found a good idea."

Soujiro pulled out a painting. "I want this child to develop independently."

Ito looked over and found that the copied painting was 60% similar to Soujiro's oil painting.

"Is this painting good?"

"...You can't understand it. This writing style is very good. Although it is still a bit stiff, it may be good if you train it. Besides, the mayor has given me a task. It would be wrong not to complete it. Besides, it's not good."

Soujiro showed the student's name. "If this can be cultivated, the mayor will also be satisfied."

Because this student's name is Mitsuha Miyamizu.

…

"Please ask Mitsuha Miyamizu from second grade class 3 to come to the office."

"Mitsuha Miyamizu from second grade class 3, please come to the office. Teacher Soujiro is looking for you."

"..." Oreki-san.

After class, Oreki-san and Sayaka went to the sink to wash off the paint on their hands, and heard the announcement when they came back.

"What happened to Sanye?"

"I don't know." Oreki-san originally wanted to ask for leave after class, so he didn't think there was any problem.

Then I saw Mr. Sojiro in the office.

There is also a drawing board for sketching on his desk, and some watercolor paints.

He had a bad feeling.

Although he has not studied painting too much, compared to other students, he can complete the painting seriously, and in the eyes of this 1.2 million teacher, he is already pretty good...

"Sanye, I thought you were good in class, and your painting is talented."

"Go and do a sketch that you think is good."

"I want to guide you." Teacher Soujiro said.

Then he lent her painting materials for free.

Ask her to come back before school in the afternoon. He will only stay at school until five o'clock.

Is this one more thing?

Oh no.

Oreki-san thought that he could use this as an excuse to go sketching and go to the mayor's office to get information about Momoka.

So two things are one thing.

Very energy efficient.

"I see."

He took the materials, said a few words to Sayaka, and then skipped class alone, in the eyes of the students.

…

"When it comes to going to the mayor's office, we actually have to take a long detour."

only.

As Oreki-san walked forward with his drawing board on his back, he noticed that the sky had turned dark.

Then.

The patter...

It's already raining.

Chapter 360 Yukino Momori, this foot is not a hand!

The patter...

Holding the sketchpad above your head and running quickly will not reduce the area covered by rain, but it will be comforting.

Oreki-san didn't think about bringing an umbrella, so he rushed directly to the park to take shelter from the rain. There was a pavilion for resting inside.

This is also a place where Sanye's father, as the mayor, is not very popular among the villagers.

He would approve spending a lot of money to ask talents from the village to come back to teach, and he would also spend a high price to build a park that integrates pools, courtyards, and forests like now.

The environment is beautiful.

But people in the village just think it's a waste of money.

In fact, from the perspective of a high-level manager, Sanye's father actually did a good job.

He was probably really invested in developing the town.

The purpose of building a park now is to develop tourism in the future.

Itomori Town has few specialties and is a bit isolated, but its natural environment is first-rate and beautiful.

If you want to increase your finances, you need to invest in this area.

but.

If it were from Yotsuba and Mitsuha's perspective, if they wanted their father to come back home, then Oreki-san might consider destroying Miyamizu's father's efforts.

Keep him from being re-elected as mayor.

Oreki-san was thinking this way and already carried the drawing board to the pavilion in the park.

The pavilion is built near the water, with a wide pool on one side and a small forest on the other side, giving it an unexpectedly close-to-nature beauty.

Oreki-san still overestimated himself.

When I came to the pavilion, I actually just wanted to try whether to use teleportation.

But it was too scary for grandma to see him suddenly appear at home.

And Oreki-san discovered that someone was taking shelter in the pavilion.

Although she was hiding from the rain, he found that the other party had an umbrella, and the umbrella was not wet at all, indicating that she was here before it rained.

"Do you need tissues?"

Oreki-san put down his painting tools on the bench and found that a snow-white arm as white as a lotus root suddenly appeared in front of him.

Looking up at the other person's delicate hands, Oreki-san saw a face that could be said to be extremely beautiful.

No, it should be Rain Girl.

Her skin is so white that it's almost sickly. If you touch her even slightly, she might feel as cold as rain.

Soft short hair, light color. Through the gaps in her hair, she could see her long eyelashes as dark as ink.

The neck and shoulders were so thin that they seemed to break at a snap. Her voice was sweet and gentle, like a child's voice.

She was wearing a formal dress that didn't match the park, and her feet were also traditional high-heeled shoes, but she was really a strange woman.

Objectively speaking, she is a beauty, and she should be considered a great beauty.

This allows even people who are not very interested in people to be convinced that this person is beautiful.

However, I always feel that her beauty is not very human. It’s more like distant clouds, towering peaks, or rabbits and deer in the snowy mountains, just like a beautiful part of nature.

Like a rain girl.

"Thanks……"

Oreki-san thanked him. He knew that this was the other person's help after seeing that his clothes were wet.

And now he is using Sanye's appearance, so the other party also thinks that he is just a girl.

Girls don't seem to need any reason to help girls. But if she knew he was a boy, it's hard to say whether she would do this again.

"At this time, wearing school uniform, and then running out..."

The woman's voice is nice and sweet.

It makes people feel that if she reads poetry, it must be very charming.

Because Oreki-san saw a book of poems by Yangcang Gyatso in her hand.

And the page she opened read.

[Whether you see me or not, I am right there, neither sad nor happy.

Whether you miss me or not, the love is there and never comes or goes.
